High School Students Receive Hefty Scholarships WELLS & OGUNQUIT Two students from WellsOgunquit High School, Gretchen Graffam and Colton Sharpe, have each been awarded a scholarship of $20,000 from the the TramutoPorter Foundation. The students were selected based on their academic success, the effort and determination they have shown facing special challenges, and their demonstration of the characteristics of compassionate leaders. According to their statements, Graffam has seen firsthand the immense impact those in the medical field have on their

patients. As a result, she will be pursuing a career in nursing with intentions of becoming a nurse practitioner at The University of Maine Orono. Sharpe faced many hardships at a young age and persevered. He will study architecture and engineering design at Southern Maine Com-

munity College. Two other students, both from Bangor High School, also received awards. The scholarship is to be used toward tuition and other expenses at a college or university of the student’s choice. Additionally, each scholar will be paired with a mentor from the TramutoPorter Foundation’s board of directors. These mentors are tasked with providing the student with guidance and support throughout their college years. According to the foundation, the relationships that scholars establish with their mentors help develop connections and

networks necessary for the students to meet their ultimate career goals beyond college. “The TramutoPorter Foundation’s vision is to create a more compassionate and kind world that acknowledges the struggles of those in need, and offers support for these challenges by moving from empathy to action,” said Donato Tramuto, founder of the TramutoPorter Foundation. “We’re proud to support these scholars in their endeavors, as they become future participants in the compassionate leadership movement, and change the workplace for the better in the years

to come.” The foundation says that, since 2001, it has served as a voice in creating partnerships that have a sustainable and measurable impact in making the world more just and fair. In doing so, it has helped tens of thousands of people realize the mission of creating a brighter future through student scholarships and financial grants to organizations worldwide whose vision is to help right the wrong and make this world a better place for all.

days immersed in the beautiful Baxter State Park in Millenocket, backpacking, exploring, and learning from wilderness experts to hopefully become future stewards of the outdoors. Therrien is the second Marshwood student to be honored with this selection. Therrien says, “I have always been very passionate about the outdoors and love hiking, being active, and exploring the landscapes around me. Last summer (2021) I completed a 30-day backpacking course through the National Outdoor

Leadership School ( NOLS) through the Wind River Range in Wyoming. That trip gave me the skills to live outside and solidified my passion for being outdoors. It also allowed me to make connections and interact with the people around me in a deeper and less distracted way. The [MYWLP] is a nine-day trip, consisting of eight nights of camping, guest speakers, and valuable lessons and training sessions. It will be about 30 miles of hiking through Baxter State Park including a hike up Mount

Public Invited to Help Map Local Critters STATEWIDE With over 33,000 square miles of Maine to survey, and 34 species of reptiles and amphibians calling the state home, accurate species mapping is a challenge. To help cover this vast area, Maine’s wildlife biologists rely on community members to share their observations. Observations are shared through the Maine Amphibian and Reptile Atlas Project (MARAP). Still active after 36 years, MARAP is one of the longest running citizen science projects in New England, having amassed nearly

Participation is open to citizen scientists of all ages and experience levels, there is no minimum number of observations required, and the new online submission form improves the speed and ease of contributing to the project. Any time a contributor spots a salamander, frog, turtle, or snake in Maine, they should take a photo and submit it with the following information: number of individual animals, species (guesses are fine since biologists will review every record), date of observation, lo-

cation of observation (street address or GPS location), and contributor’s contact information. Data can be uploaded using the online form; or the app, which also helps with the identification of species, can be downloaded ahead of time to use offline in the field.

Solar Cars Work Great at Great Works

SOUTH BERWICK On Friday, May 27, fifthgrade students from Marshwood Great Works School (GWS) in South Berwick participated in the Annual Solar Car Race Day.

munications, “the race began with excitement in the air and anticipation brimming; but unfortunately, very little sun. The race must go on, however, so the students improvised with battery-powered packs strapped to their cars. It was a great day for students, teachers, and spectators alike.” The cars were judged and awards were given based on speed, technical merit, craftsmanship, creative use of recycled materials, and innovation, along with a Kids’ Choice award and an award for best representation of the 4 C’s: creativity, cooperation, collaboration, and compromise.

~ Ask The Computer Pro ~

Dear Computer Pro, My boyfriend uses a VPN for his work. It has been working fine when he accesses it from my home until recently when it suddenly stopped being usable. I tried to troubleshoot by looking up what might cause this online, but all I could find was something about my internet connection possibly being “unstable.” What exactly is a VPN and what about my connection might cause it to stop working smoothly? Thanks, Gwenivere Dear Gwenivere, Virtual Private Network (VPN) issues can be caused by many things. The very first thing I would try would be to reboot your home router. Sometimes it really is just as simple as that! This is often the shortest path to resolution with many home network issues. I know it is not the most definitive solution, but it just might work. Beyond that, you will have to start digging into Windows and what may have happened there. Was there a recent Microsoft update that got applied that is interfering? Did a system security scan decide to enable the Windows Firewall again with

some setting that is blocking the connection? Did someone remove an app that they did not recognize that was actual a dependency for the VPN to function correctly? It could be anything, really. Lastly, and I hope your boyfriend’s employer would have been proactive about this, but sometimes the problem is that the VPN client needs an update, and it didn’t happen automatically. If all those efforts do not help, I would have your boyfriend reach out to his IT support folks and ask them to look into what may be causing the error. They should have access to extensive logs that would point them in the right direction. If it ends up being an actual internet service issue, they will be able to see that, as well. Good luck! Matt Dear Computer Pro, I was told by a friend that keeping a phone battery plugged in after it is reached its full charge is bad for the battery. He also said letting it run down to zero percent is bad for it. His recommendation is to keep a battery charged at roughly 80 percent at all times. Is he right about any of this? Thanks, Roland

Dear Roland, Over the years, there have been many myths about how best to maintain your phone’s battery. Some folks would never let it get to a completely discharged state while others thought the best way to charge was to always “trickle” charge. There were companies that made chargers that promised to extend your phone’s battery life. There were even apps that claimed to manage the way your battery was charged so that you would get more and more out of it. In the end, all these little tips and tricks did little to get any more life out of your battery. That being said, up until recently when more and more folks are utilizing wireless charging, I would always recommend folks only used chargers that were manufactured specifically for their phone by the phone’s manufacturer. Those cheap “aftermarket” chargers have damaged thousands of phones over the years. I have seen anything from ruining the phone’s mainboard to actually catching either the phone or the charger (sometimes both) on fire! Today’s phones all utilize lithium-based batteries. The batteries, phones, and chargers all talk to each other during the charging process to ensure the battery is being charged at an optimal rate at all times, so there is really no need for you to worry about when or how you charge your phone. Just charge it whenever you need to during the day and overnight and your phone’s battery should last three to five years before it needs to be

replaced. Unless you are wireless charging, though, I still recommend sticking with an original charger from your phone’s manufacturer to ensure the best life out of your battery. Stay away from those $5 chargers that can be found in the checkout line. Good luck! Matt Dear Computer Pro, I have heard and read lot of conf licting information about how to recycle old devices (phones, computers, screens, etc.) and what happens to them after you drop them off at a recycling location. Some of the devices apparently never even get recycled or refurbished. Do you have any recommendations on the best way to make sure an old device does not just end up in a dump somewhere? Thank you, Freya Dear Freya, The best advice I can give you would be to simply do some research about various recycling centers in your area to see which ones are properly handling the e-waste that they are taking in. Not everyone is aware, but Best Buy allows you to drop off old or unwanted electronics and appliances, up to three items per household per day, mostly for free. Items that are more expensive to properly process like old tube televisions and computer monitors will require a modest fee to dispose of. Best Buy consolidates all the disposed of equipment and works with one of their contracted recycling partners to

Social Media: It’s Not Just For Kids Anymore Perhaps due to the popularity of social media among a generation of young people who grew up with it, platforms such as Instagram and Facebook are often associated with people born in the 21st century. However, a 2018 study from the Pew Institute found that 65 percent of adults between the ages of 50 and 64 used Facebook and 68 percent used YouTube. Social media is often on the receiving end of negative attention, but it’s also a potentially valuable tool that can help men and women over 50 stay connected with their communities. That’s not always so easy for adults who no longer have children at home. And as its name suggests, social media can help users connect with others who share their interests. Such connections also can be hard to make for adults over 50. Adults over 50 may be more comfortable with social media now than they were a decade ago, but it’s still a good idea to brush up on basic security measures that can help men and women protect their privacy as they utilize platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Protect your personal information. No social media user has the right to access your personal information, including your address, date of birth or other data unique to you. Avoid interacting with anyone who requests personal information, employing the function to block such users from connecting with you when possible. It’s also important to keep information about travel plans private. For example, sharing details of an upcoming vacation can serve notice to potential criminals that no one will be in your house, making it a potential target for burglars. Aim for quality, not quantity, when building social media See MEDIA on page 28 . . .

~ Arts & Entertainment ~ Children’s Book by Local Author and Artist SOUTH BERWICK South Berwick author Ed Vieira has recently published “Ali and the Tree,” the first in a

series of children’s books illustrated by former California artist and now Berwick resident Lisa Delaney. The “Ali and the . . .”

Darling Mural Now Adorns School SOUTH BERWICK The Central School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) recently awarded the school with a week-long artist residency that resulted in a bright, welcoming mural. Seacoast artist Kenley Darling spent her time painting, talking with students about her process, and answering many questions. Prior to Darling’s visit, student artists learned about mindf ulness, the importance of engaging and persisting, and mandalas, an art form from which the artist often draws inspiration.

Students took part in designing their own mandalas using symbols unique to them. They created mandalas on cardboard and wood with paint, on paper with colored pencils and sparkly crayons, and outside with chalk and nature bits. Students also watched a PBS video that showed the creation of a sand mandala, and many were impressed with the patience and dedication involved. Darling hopes the mural will “brighten our day, every day.” For more information, visit www.rsu35. org/o/cs/article/754874.

series of children’s picture books is designed to entertain and teach children and to encourage their emotional intelligence. The illustrations focus on the facial expressions of the characters in the context of the situation presented. Children have the opportunity to learn about the

meaning of specific emotional expressions and why people express and feel certain emotions, and they are given the chance to empathize through the characters in the stories. Delaney works in various artistic media, including traditional watercolors, acrylics, pastels, and pencil/ink, as well as digital. Of the book, Brittany Mc-

Clure, a counselor at the Margaret Chase Smith School in Sanford, says, “this is a sweet children’s story that promotes honesty and teaches problem-solving skills. It also suggests that sometimes you have to work for something that you want in life. As a school counselor, I can use this story to teach children valuable See BOOK on page 15 . . .

New Grooves and Fan Faves

SOUTH BERWICK The Sundays in the Garden concert series returns for its 31st year in the gardens of Historic New England’s Hamilton House, overlooking the Salmon Falls River, taking place Sundays in July, 5-6:30 p.m. This year’s line-up includes artists new to the series and concert-goer favorites. Harvey Reid opens the series on July 3 with his 31st annual appearance at the house. Reid has performed extensively, garnering national recognition as a specialist in American acoustic music. He has honed his craft since the 1970’s in venues across the nation, absorbing a vast repertoire of American contemporary and roots music and weaving it into his own distinctive style. Alex Minasian Trio will perform Sunday, July 10. Minasian has performed in most of the country’s most famous jazz rooms, such as Birdland,

the Blue Note, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and the Apollo Theater. The trio has a weekly residency at the New York restaurant Tavern on the Green. On July 17, Marjorie Senet and the Broken-Home Boys return to the series with classic honky-tonk/country/American roots music. Folk New Hampshire said of Senet, “Her downhome voice and sweet songs of heartbreak might as well have come straight from the Ryman Auditorium days of the Grand Ole Opry.” On Sunday, July 24, Thea Hopkins takes the stage. A member of Aquinnah Wampanoag tribe of Martha’s Vineyard, MA, this singer-songwriter calls her music Red Roots Americana. Hopkins first came to wider public notice when Peter, Paul & Mary recorded her song “Jesus Is On The Wire” in 2004 and again in 2010 with the Prague Symphony Orchestra.

First- and second-graders from Biddeford Elementary School show off their drawings after a visit to OMAA.

OGUNQUIT The Ogunquit Museum of American Art (OMAA) recently launched a new pilot program in which the museum partners with a local school to enhance student learning of the visual arts. For the inaugural 2022 season, Biddeford Primary School (BPS) was selected for the program. First- and second-grade students visited the museum last month. Before their visit, they learned about a particular work of art in the classroom before seeing it in person. The work they studied was “Sleeping Girl,” a 1922 oil painting by Walt Kuhn and an example of a modernist painting. “We are grateful for the opportunity to partner members receive free admission to all performances.

with the museum to support student engagement in a real-life art experience,” said Concetta Domenico, Maine artist and art educator at BPS. “As a teacher and an artist, my goal is to instill within each student a greater sense of self-worth while encouraging independence, co-operative, creative thinking, and decision making. This results in a sense of confidence and allows students to ‘dream big’ when it comes to their personal goals.” This new initiative by the OMAA will connect students with original works of art and will also provide an opportunity for them to copy a work of Maine-inspired art in a museum setting with a pencil sketch. In addition to school buses for transportation, the museum will provide students with an art bag full of supplies for drawing and creating art. According to the OMAA, for more than half of the students, this will be their first time in an art museum. “We are thrilled to continue to grow our education department using outreach to make our permanent collection more accessible for students,” said Amanda Lahikainen, PhD, OMAA’s executive director. “When they come to the museum with their classmates, they will recognize the work of art and have the confidence to discuss and engage with the object.” For more information, visit www.ogunquitmuseum.org.

Medcaid's Postpartum Coverage Extended STATEWIDE Governor Janet Mills recently announced that her administration will extend postpartum Medicaid health care coverage from 60 days to 12 months after a woman gives birth. The federal government approved the request from the Maine Department of Health and Human Services to extend the coverage beginning August 1. The American Rescue Plan (ARP) provided states with the option to extend postpar-

tum coverage from the federally-required minimum of 60 days through a state amendment. Maine’s LD 1781 from last December authorized the Mills Administration to seek that extension of coverage from the Federal government. The move is intended to improve maternal health and ensure that women do not lose access to postpartum care, which includes recovery from childbirth, follow-up on pregnancy complications, management of

chronic health conditions, access to family planning, and help for mental health conditions. The Governor’s Office estimates that an additional 2,000 women per year in Maine will have access to health care coverage for a full year after giving birth because of the move. In 2020, 39% of all births in Maine were covered by health care through MaineCare, Maine’s Medicaid program. “Extending support for mothers not only promotes healthy outcomes but saves taxpayer dollars by supporting preventive care during this critical year,” said Jeanne Lambrew, Commissioner of the Department of Health and Human Services. Representative Michele Meyer of Eliot, House Chair of the Health and Human Services Committee, added, “I am thrilled to see this coverage be approved by the federal government. Ensuring new mothers have access to health care while they are healing and beginning to raise their children will improve their health and, importantly, the health of their new baby.” According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, experts agree that postpartum care is an ongoing process that typically involves multiple visits and follow-up care that extends past the arbitrary 60-day coverage limit. Extending health care coverage will provide stability of care important for those who experience pregnancy complications See COVERAGE on page 17 . . .

Vaccines for Young Children YORK COUNTY After recent approval from the FDA and CDC, the York County Vaccination Center, a high-throughput vaccine center that has delivered thousands of COVID-19 vaccines to children and adults, is now welcoming those under five years of age. “This age group has been the only one not yet able to receive the vaccine. We are excited to now say that day is here,” said Art Cleaves, Director of York County Emergency Management Agency. “The York County Vaccination Center is committed to doing its part to putting this pandemic behind us.” The vaccination center, located at the former Marshalls Building at The Center For Shopping, 1364 Main Street,

Sanford, will continue to operate Tuesdays and Thursdays 1-6 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The center is staffed by vaccinators, clinicians, first responders, and staff from municipalities across York County. “Our staff has worked to set up the center to be comfortable for children and their families,” said Megan Arsenault, deputy director of York County Emergency Management Agency. “We have prizes, kid-friendly TV, coloring stations, a nursing area for mothers, and can accommodate siblings or families getting vaccinated together – anything we can do to make this experience as pleasant as possible.” Appointments are drop-in only.

Donate Blood for the Holiday STATEWIDE A s s u m me r of f ic ia l ly begins and people gather for holiday celebrations, the American Red Cross reminds communities that patients are counting now on the generosity of blood and platelet donors, especially around the Independence Day. The Red Cross sees about a 21% decline in blood and platelet donations during holiday weeks. When blood donations drop, so does the blood supply, making it extremely challenging to ensure blood is available when hospitals need it. As a thank you for helping, all those who come to give between June 30 and July 10 will receive an exclusive Red Cross recycled cotton tote bag (pictured), while supplies last. As an additional service, the Red Cross is screening all blood, platelet, and plasma donations from self-identified African American donors for the sickle cell trait. This screening will provide Black donors with supplemental health insights and help the Red Cross identify compatible blood types more quickly to help patients with sickle cell disease. Donors can expect to receive sickle-cell trait screening results, if applicable, within one

to two weeks through the Red Cross Blood Donor App and the online donor portal. The Red Cross follows a high standard of safety and infection control. It will continue social distancing wherever possible at blood drives, donation centers, and facilities. While donors are no longer required to wear a face mask, individuals may choose to continue to wear a mask for any reason. The Red Cross will also adhere to more stringent face mask requirements per state and/or local guidance, or at the request of blood drive sponsors. Donors are asked to schedule an appointment prior to arriving at a drive. To schedule an appointment, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit www.redcrossblood. org, or call 1-800-733-2767.

Health & Fitness Heart to Heart Receives Grant for Senior Support YORK Jud Knox, former CEO of York Hospital, was looking for a way to continue to serve his community in retirement. “I did a fair amount of soul-searching,” he explained. “I asked myself, ‘What do you want to do now? What’s important to you? Who are you?’” He quickly found himself on the path to providing volunteer services for older adults in his community, particularly transportation. “I have always felt that there are a lot of issues for older adults that are difficult to address, and in fact go unaddressed.” Along with his wife, Laurie, Knox launched Heart to Heart Ageless Love and began providing free transportation for older adults in York. They provide rides to medical appointments, the grocery store, the pharmacy, social events, and other errands at no cost to the rider. “Requests came rolling in very, very rapidly,” Knox said. Heart to Heart is currently providing 30-40 rides per week. And the group is growing. Recently, Kennebunk Savings granted the group $10,000 from its Huntington Common Charitable Fund (HCCF), which was created in 2006 to help older adults in York County lead complete and fulfilled lives. “We talk a lot about access to social determinants of health,” said Rachel Peter, Community Relations Admin-

istrator for Kennebunk Savings. “There are these basic services and needs that are easy to take for granted. They’re not particularly glamorous or showy, but filling in the gaps can be transformative. Our HCCF advisors have long understood how critical transportation can be for older adults in our communities, es-

pecially in the more rural areas of York County. Heart to Heart’s barrier-free approach is crucial to meeting the needs of older adults in our community.” Jud added, “I am a person who loves connection. The relationships that one can develop, just from a conversation during a drive to the doctor’s office . . . it is phenomenal. It

is so much more than just a ride.” With the funds from HCCF, Heart to Heart will now be offering a stipend to their over 20 volunteer drivers to help offset rising fuel costs. “It’s not much, but it is an expression of appreciation to our volunteers,” Jud said. He hopes to attract more volunteers to the program and increase the scope of their work. The Kennebunk Savings

Bank Foundation’s Huntington Common Charitable Fund is now approaching the second-quarter deadline for new grant proposals in 2022.

The move comes at a time when, according to Kaiser, studies show that suicidal tendencies among pregnant and postpartum women has risen over the past decade, with at least one in ten women experiencing perinatal depression. Moreover, other studies indicate higher rates of postpartum depression but worse access to treatment among communities of color and low-income women. So far, Maine is the only New England state to extend Medicaid and CHIP coverage from 60 days to 12 months postpartum.

Bernier-Gelinas FUNERAL HOME

Kittery, ME We are often asked by the families we serve, here at JS Pelkey & Son and Bernier Funeral Homes, why certain expressions and traditions exist in the funeral service industry. One of the most often asked questions is “Why send flowers to a memorial service or funeral, aren’t they just a waste of money?” Well nothing could be further from the truth. As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sympathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief. In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased. Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was

bereaved’s feelings in the patterns of community support which are psychologically beneficial. Flowers, however, express the inexpressible – they are symbolic.

missing – that the funeral was depressing. The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering. The funeral period provides for the expression of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the deceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies. The ceremony deals primarily with intellectual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the

125 Old Post Rd., Kittery, ME 207-439-4900 www.jspelkeyfuneralhome.com

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy extended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard.

Charles attended Tewksbury Schools and was a graduate of Tewksbury High School where he was an All-Star basketball player. After graduation, Charles attended Boston University and received a bachelor’s degree. He then went on to earn a masters degree from Boston University and a Doctorate of Education from Columbia University. Education was central to Charles’s core. He began as a teacher and worked his way up to being vice principal, principal, and superintendent of the Pelham, NY, School System until his retirement. In Charles’s free time, he and William traveled around the world several times. Peru, China, India, and Europe were some of their favorite spots to visit. They enjoyed dining out and seeing films, especially those staring local native Bette Davis. Charles

FINANCE & CAREER ADU Grant Pilot Program KITTERY The Town of Kittery is a beautiful, vibrant, and desirable place to live. As a result, housing is becoming less affordable for families and workers. To help increase avai labi lit y of af fordable residential units in the community, the Town of Kittery has launched the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Grant Pilot Program, funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). Through this pro-

gram, eligible applicants can receive up to $50,000 for design, permitting, and construction of an ADU. An ADU is a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot. It can be attached to the primary house, like a converted garage, or unattached, like a freestanding cottage. Owners can supplement income by renting out the unit, or they can offer it to family members as an additional dwelling. Proper t y ow ners must

meet income eligibility requirements to participate in the program. The new ADU unit must meet all Town of Kittery code and zoning requirements and be completed within two years of the grant award. A pre-application meeting with the Planning Department staff is required prior to submitting an application. The deadline to apply is August 1. For a full list of the grant program rules and to download the application, visit tinyurl.com/27t4k7mn.

Community College Debt Forgiveness STATEWIDE Maine’s community colleges are launching a new debt forgiveness program that eliminates up to $2,000 in student debt for all former students. In March, the Maine Community College System (MCCS) Board of Trustees voted unanimously to approve the change. “It’s time to come back and finish what you started,” said Janet Sortor, chief academic officer and vice

York Chamber Awards Scholarships YORK The York Region Chamber of Commerce recently awarded its 2022 scholarship program awards to two Graduates of York High School, Jillian Carr and Liam Clayton. The $1500 scholarships are awarded to support local students seeking post-high-school education at a 2-4 year college or an accredited vocational/technical or trade program. Winners are chosen after an essay competition and interview session with chamber board members. Carr was a member of the National Honor Society and the Spanish Honor Society. She captained the girls ice hockey

team for two years and was a captain of the softball team. She also volunteered at York Hospital. Carr says she will apply her scholarship award to Quinnipiac University, where she will study health sciences. Clay ton wa s e n rol led solely in honors classes in high school, and was also a captain of the football team, earning all conference honors. He earned the Leadership Award for York High’s football team and will play in this year’s Lobster Bowl. He will enter Mass Maritime Academy in the fall to study Marine Transportation and to continue playing football. This year, one of the two

Snap a HiSET Sign for Chance to Win YORK To promote Maine’s statewide campaign encouraging adult learners to complete the HiSET (High School Equivalency Test), York Adult Education (YAE) is offering a promotion: anyone who spots one of YAE’s fifteen HiSET signs around town can snap a picture of it (with background) and post it to FaceBook or Twitter with the hashtag #YACEHiSET for the chance to win a $25 gas card. Winners will be randomly drawn on Thursdays until August 11 and announced via Facebook. The Maine Department of Education’s Office of Adult Education launched a statewide campaign to encourage adult learners to complete the HiSET, Maine’s high school equivalency test. Those who complete the test are eligible for two years of free community college in Maine. As part of the campaign, “It’s time for HiSET” yard signs will

be displayed throughout Maine to raise awareness and encourage sponsorship of community events to promote HiSET completion. The HiSET has been Maine’s high school equivalency test since 2014, when it took the place of the GED. Adult learners without a high school credential can receive a Maine High School Equivalency Diploma by successfully completing the HiSET’s five subject tests in language arts reading, language arts writing, mathematics, science, and

president of MCCS. “These students have already proven they can succeed academically. They just need a little help getting over the finish line.” T he ne w s m a l l- d eb t forgiveness program, called “Return, Resume, Reward,” takes ef fec t immediately. Former MCCS students can take advantage of the program if they owe no more than $2,000, it has been at least two years since they attended a Maine community college, they enroll in at least six credits, and they maintain good academic standing. A student’s past debt is set aside during the program, and half of the past debt (up to $1,000) is forgiven after the first semester. The second half is forgiven after the second semester. Several of the system’s seven colleges have had an unoff icial debt-forgiveness program in place, allowing a student to re-enroll or access college services despite a small debt. This formalizes the process for all the colleges. Tuition at Maine’s community colleges is $96 per credit, and the average cost of tuition and fees for a year of full-time study is $3,700.

~ News ~ A Time To Look Into Our Past By Jim Fabiano This has been a stressful time in our rich history. When things get difficult, I find it best to look into our past in order to see how people who came before us handled their hardships and adventures. As a town that has a rich history, York also has many legends associated with it. Some include a story about Joe, Bijo, and Tom, and their fight with a sunfish. Before the Town of York was known for its summer resorts, it was a place where farmers living away from the coast could take some time between haying and harvest and do some fishing. They would find board and lodging with the family of some fisherman. The fisher-

men sometimes contemptuously called these people countrymen or highlanders. As legend has it, many years ago, three highlanders came to York for their annual fishing vacation. They were named Joe, Bijo, and Tom. Because they had fished these shores in years past, they hired a dory and fished by themselves. On this particular trip, they had remarkably good luck. In fact, they were doing so well they decided to make it a banner day because they viewed a sunfish that weighed approximately 500 lbs. make its appearance alongside their boat. I can’t even imagine a 500 lb. sunfish. Joe then picked up a gaff and succeeded in hooking it into the eye socket of the monstrous fish. The sunfish then began to

sink. Joe decided to hang on. Bijo then also grabbed hold of the gaff to help Joe, but the sunfish continued its descent toward the bottom. By this time, Joe was hanging over the side of their boat. He tried to let go, but the loop was drawn too tight around his hand. He started to yell, and then Tom and Bijo grabbed Joe around his hips to stop him from being dragged to the bottom with the sunfish. When a fisherman tells this tale, he usually states that they “nippered” him across the gunwale. The tug of war between Joe, Bijo, Tom, and the fish became a deadlock. They weren’t losing Joe off the side, but they also weren’t able to pull him back into the boat with the sunfish. This went on for awhile until Joe finally gasped, “Fare ye well, Bijo and Tom, he’s

pulling me in two, lemme go.” But his friends did not let go even though Joe screamed, “You darn fools, you’re gwine to pull me in two. Lemme go and dround.” Bijo then grabbed a knife and leaned over the rail to see if he could cut Joe loose. But, because Joe was much taller than Bijo, he was unable to reach the rawhide of the gaff so that he could reach Joe’s wrist. He then jumped overboard, reached down and thrashed wildly so that he could cut the rawhide tie around Joe’s wrist. He succeeded, thus freeing Joe from his watery grave. He also gave Joe’s wrist a severe hash, severing an artery. Tom pulled Joe and Bijo back into the boat. Both Tom and Bijo looked at the blood that was spurting out of Joe’s wrist. He told his friends in no uncertain terms that “Fust I was gwine to

dround, and naow I’m gwine ter bleed ter death. I unno which is wust.” Tom then put a tourniquet on his writs, rowed to shore, and took him to a doctor, who took care of the problem. But, to the end of his days, Joe told anyone who would listen that he was stretched to several inches beyond his former length and he never shrunk again. York is known for many things. Most include our beautiful landscape with its exceptional beaches. But, in the long run, all of what we are is centered on the people who have called York their home in the past, in the present, and most probably into our future.

Potholes Can Burn Walletholes!

STATEWIDE After the winter season comes pothole season. A new survey from the American Auto Association (AAA) found that last year, one in ten drivers sustained vehicle damage significant enough to warrant a repair after hitting a pothole. With an average price tag of almost $600 per repair, damage caused by potholes cost drivers a staggering $26.5 billion in 2021 alone. “In the Northeast, winter roads

tuate, it expands and contracts due to freezing and thawing. This breaks up the pavement and, combined with the weight of passing cars, eventually results in a pothole. These concrete craters can wreak havoc on a vehicle’s tires, alignment, suspension, and shocks. In the winter and spring of 2021, AAA responded to 1.8 million tire-related roadside assistance calls. While AAA does not identify if a roadside assistance request is the result of pothole damage, this number represented 11% of the total calls received in the winter and spring last year. To make matters worse, many drivers often ended up with an average of two pothole-related repairs, signaling that America’s roadways need immediate attention. As states receive an inf lux of funds from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, AAA urges government officials and

departments of transportation to focus on improving road conditions, prioritizing those areas most in need of repair. While potholes are a reality for many drivers, sustaining vehicle damage does not have to be. AAA recommends drivers check their tires regularly, which includes monitoring tread depth, tire pressure, and suspension and alignment. The association also reminds drivers to keep their eyes on the road, since an alert and cautious driver is less likely to hit a pothole. There may be times when hitting a pothole cannot be avoided. In that case, drivers should safely reduce speed as much as possible and avoid braking abruptly, particularly when going over the pothole, as this compresses a vehicle’s suspension and adds extra force to the tire. Striking a pothole at higher speeds increases the chance of severe damage, including knocking the wheels out of alignment, affecting the steering, and bending or even breaking suspension components. After hitting a pothole, pay attention to any new or unusual noises or vibrations. If a driver detects something is off with their vehicle, they should

. . . MEDIA from page 12 networks. Avoid accepting friend requests from individuals you don’t know. Cyber criminals often gain access to victims via social media, so limit your social media network to people you know and trust. Turn off location information. The technology behind social media is impressive and even makes it possible to determine where users are when they tweet or post to other platforms. But many users, especially those concerned about their privacy, don’t want to share location information with anyone, much less strangers. Turn off location information and routinely double check to make sure it’s still turned off.

Discuss others’ privacy concerns before posting to social media. Social media isn’t for everyone, and some people may not want photos of themselves or their children posted to platforms like Facebook or Instagram. Prior to posting pictures or information about other people, confirm that they’re OK with you doing so. Adults over 50 are engaging with social media. But no matter how comfortable users become, it’s still best to keep various social media safety protocols in mind.

Safe Haven Humane Society

WELLS Joy is a lovely two-year-old brown tiger kitty. She lost her only kitten soon after it was born. Joy had been sick during her pregnancy, and the treatments and medications she needed were not helpful to a forming kitten. The team at the Safe Haven shelter rallied around Joy. Everyone comforted her and gave her extra love and attention. This diversion from her grief helped pull her forward and make her the happy kitty she is today. Joy loves people and attention; she loves to play and be cuddled and held. This darling girl will be a wonderful addition to a home with responsible children who will give her the play time she wants and the

But that doesn’t mean our work stops; there are many pets needing us. So, we reach out today for your help. We ask our community to temporarily foster a pet as a way to help us save even more lives. If you’d like to be a short-term foster and house a young pup or

a litter of kittens, please contact us right away. We have a large group of puppies and kittens arriving next week from the South, and they need you. We also have several longterm resident dogs who are big

They are up to date on their shots and ready to go. They do not have to be adopted together, but it would be nice for them. They would do well in most any home, as they are very friendly guys. If you would like to meet either pup, call 207-676-5599. Emma’s Angels Rescue is an all-volunteer organization in North Berwick. Needed at this time are wee-wee pads (we have many small, senior dogs). They can be left in our drop box at 30 Meeting House Road.
